Critical Illness

CI: Hypocaloric Feeding Regimen (2011)

Intervention
Does the use of a low calorie, high protein feeding in critically ill obese adults impact mortality?
- Conclusion
  The effect of hypocaloric high-protein feeding (less than 20kcal per kg ABW and two grams protein per kg IBW) on mortality in critically-ill obese adults is unclear.
- Grade: III
  - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
  - Grade II is Fair;
  - Grade III is Limited/Weak;
  - Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
  - Grade V is Not Assignable.
  - High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
  - Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
  - Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
  - Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
  - Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.

Does the use of a low calorie, high protein feeding in critically ill obese adults impact infectious complications?
- Conclusion
  The effect of hypocaloric, high-protein feeding (less than 20kcal per kg ABW and two grams protein per kg IBW) on infectious complications in critically-ill obese adults is unclear.
- Grade: III
  - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
  - Grade II is Fair;
  - Grade III is Limited/Weak;
  - Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
  - Grade V is Not Assignable.

Does the use of a low calorie, high protein feeding in critically ill obese adults impact length of stay (LOS)?
- Conclusion
  There is limited evidence that hypocaloric high-protein feeding (less than 20kcal per kg ABW and two grams protein per kg IBW) promoted shorter ICU stays in critically-ill obese adults, although total hospital LOS did not differ. Nitrogen balance was not adversely affected.
- Grade: III
  - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
  - Grade II is Fair;
  - Grade III is Limited/Weak;
  - Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
  - Grade V is Not Assignable.

Does the use of a low calorie, high protein feeding in critically ill obese adults impact days on mechanical ventilation?
- Conclusion
  The effect of hypocaloric high protein feeding (less than 20kcal per kg ABW and two grams protein per kg IBW) on duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill obese adults is unclear.
- Grade: III
  - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
  - Grade II is Fair;
  - Grade III is Limited/Weak;
